Kieran Trippier

Kieran Trippier of Wolverhampton Wanderers was born in Bury, England on 19 September 1990 (age 35).

Kieran Trippier, born on 19 September 1990 (age 35), is an English right-back with Wolverhampton Wanderers. He has long been a first-team type rather than a squad ornament, and that remains the case in 2025–26.

His most productive league season came at Burnley in 2011–12, when he scored three goals in 46 appearances. That tells its own modest story: not a defender built around headline numbers, but one trusted to get through a heavy league campaign and contribute from the flank.

At Wolves, Trippier has stayed involved. In 2025–26 he has made 21 Premier League appearances, along with three in the FA Cup and four in the League Cup, giving him 28 appearances in all competitions without a goal. His current market value is around £3.5m, according to Transfermarkt.

Trippier’s career has been shaped by reliability at right-back, with Burnley providing an early marker of his durability and Wolves still using him regularly deep into his thirties.
